Eddie is our resident crafter. He always has several projects on the go and his creativity and imagination knows no bounds. This morning he set about making himself an eye mask.
Eddie soon got to work with measuring, cutting and sewing…
As with pretty much anything in this house, curious siblings quickly gathered to see what was going on and whether they could join in too…
Paddy wanted to make his own eye mask too. Apparently, Ollie keeps him awake at bedtime so he *needs* one…
With two of the boys settled with fabric, needle and thread along came the girls to practise their sewing skills too…
Libby concentrates at the kitchen table…
Even though they are only two-years-old, the twins take sewing very seriously…
… while Anna prefers sewing in comfort on the sofa…
With four-year-old Ollie now sewing at her side, even Isobel proves that you’re never too young to learn a new skill…
16-month-old Bel is keeping up with the big kids…
And soon enough they celebrate a job well done…

Hopefully they’ll be keen for an early bedtime tonight! 😉
Paddy celebrates his job well done with an apple – getting ready for a nap Snow White style perhaps?
What started as a single child activity ended up a six kid gathering.
That’s how anything goes when it’s done the large family way!
Great post and looks like they all enjoyed them-selves x #Carnival x
Thank you. It seems as though they did, doesn’t it?!
Ha ha, love the photo’s of their sewing makes! Great post. Only sewing that goes on in our house is the mending variety! #carnival
Such clever creative children, much better than me, I get my mum to do my sewing still #bloggingmumscarnival x
